Sports & Recreation

The goal of the Maccabee Athletic Club is to bring organized athletics with top notch professional instruction to the Jewish community of the Westside of Los Angeles. Our activities do not conflict with Jewish holidays and the Sabbath. Jewish values and ethics, and sportsmanship is a core focus of every one of our community building endeavors.

About the Sunday Basketball Clinic:

Maccabee Athletic Club is pleased to be able to offer the community Sunday basketball for boys and girls at Westside JCC. For the younger groups, our focus will be on drills and skill-building, but each session will end with organized games. Professional coaching will be provided by Coach Richard Harris (from JCAMP) and his team.
